Watch Out for Depression


                                              Introjective depression occurs when a person feels that they have failed to meet their own standards or the standards of important others and that therefore they are failures.  Introjective depression arises from a harsh, unrelenting, highly critical superego that creates feelings of worthlessness, guilt and a sense of having failure.  A person with this depression experiences intense fears of losing approval, recognition and love from a desired object.  Source: National Institute of Health; Huffington Post
